Hi Tanveer,

I just wanted to give you a heads up that this was answered in your support ticket 1478236. However, I will add the response here for anyone looking for a sample in the community as well.

Setting the Document Name on Export or Print

This is dependent upon the DocumentName property and the best approach to bind this to a Report Parameter. Let me go over how to do this below.

Binding the DocumentName

In the Report Definition file, create a Report Parameter and bind its value to the DocumentName. See the screenshots below for a visual reference.

Note that previewing the report and exporting it in the Report Designer will always refer to the file name and not the Report Parameter value.

The Report Parameter Properties

Note that the Visibility and AutoRefresh properties are set to true. This will enable the end-users to edit the parameter and the report will refresh.

The DocumentName Property

Pass the Parameter to the Report

To pass parameters from the Blazor Report Viewer to the Report use the @code syntax. See the following Blazor Report Viewer markup for an example.

Note that the below code snippet is related to our Blazor Report Viewer. Although, each of our Report Viewer's have the same capability. See the Report Viewers Overview for a reference of our Report Viewers.

<ReportViewer @ref="reportViewer1"
              ViewerId="rv1"
              ServiceUrl="/api/reports"
              ReportSource="@(new ReportSourceOptions()
                              {
                                  Report = "SampleReport.trdp",
                                  Parameters = new Dictionary<string, object>
                                  {
                                      { "ReportName", ReportName },
                                      { "Date", date }
                                  }
                              })"
              Parameters="@(new ParametersOptions { Editors = new EditorsOptions { MultiSelect = EditorType.ComboBox, SingleSelect = EditorType.ComboBox } })"
              ScaleMode="@(ScaleMode.Specific)"
              Scale="1.0" />

@code {
    ReportViewer reportViewer1;
    string ReportName = "AName";
    DateTime date = DateTime.Now;
}

Wrapping Up

For additional reference, I have attached a sample project that illustrates changing the name of the Exported Document. To use the sample, ensure the Telerik NuGet Feed is Configured in Visual Studio.

Please let me know if you need any additional information. Thank you for choosing Telerik Reporting.

Hi Aqeel,

This thread is related to changing the Document Name when Printing. I only used the parameter as a means to change the document name dynamically.

For your requirement, I recommend reviewing the article for Connecting to a SQL Server Database using a Stored Procedure.

Additionally, see the Using Parameters with the SqlDataSource Component documentation for the configuring the Parameter.

Note that using the SqlDataSource Wizard will guide you in configuring parameters and the Stored Procedure.

If you have any questions relating to these I ask that you please create a new thread so that we can keep the topics organized.

Thank you for using the Telerik Reporting forums.
